Thanks for the info on shooting/handling them. The one that I handled at the DSC show was very nice. The Caprivi was pretty sharp as well but I already have a wood stocked DGR in .416 Rem. I do see what you were talking about on the forearm of the Caprivi. I felt like they could have done a little bit better job shaping the wood stock on those rifles (even though it is probably the nicest DGR available today). I have looked at the Sako's and they are really nice. However, my personal taste calls for a mauser style bolt with controlled round feed on my DGR's. I have no doubt that a Rem M700 or Sako 75 are perfectly great for this task as well but that is just my taste at the moment. For my all weather bear gun, I have even looked at trying to pick up one of the old Winchester M70 Classic Stainless rifles in .375 H&H since they are not nearly as expensive as their wood stocked Safari Express counterparts. The only thing with the Classic Stainless is that I would want to change the rear sight, add the barrel band sling swivel, and probably re-stock it to a drop belly style synthetic stock as well. I know... I am picky.
